What prompted you to sign up for Scaling Ventures?

Scaling Ventures literally describes our current organizational situation. I work for a technology company that was scaling quickly, yet we hit a bit of a plateau and were looking for real-life management strategies to help us continue to grow profitably.

What did you enjoy about learning with Harvard Business School Online?

A few members of my leadership team also took the course with me and we absolutely loved it. The case studies were from present-day technology companies, and were so relevant and relatable. The virtual, real-time classroom class discussion made me feel like I was at Harvard Business School again. It was truly fantastic.

How are you applying what you learned in Scaling Ventures?

Any advice for others who take an HBS Online course?

We very much enjoyed taking the class as a leadership team and then spending another 30 minutes after class debriefing on the discussion and identifying top takeaways that we could implement at our company.
